Description

Here is a unique and colorful strategy game that helps strengthen spatial reasoning, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. Have each player choose a color; then go around in a circle, each player placing one game piece in the center at a time. Once a 2 x 2 square has been created with the pieces, the player with the majority of the square gets to stack their color on the top/center of that square. Keep building upward until a pyramid-shaped structure has been achieved, composed of all the players' game pieces. The player with the most corner pieces wins! 2 – 4 players, with a playing time of 10 – 20 minutes.

Publisher's Description of Corners Up Game

Are you clever enough to collect the most corners?

Each player gets 20 game pieces of one color. On each turn, players have to place one of their piece adjacent to or on top of the other pieces within a 4x4 grid, building a pyramid as they go. When a 2x2 square is completed, whoever has the most pieces within that 2x2 square gets to place one of their pieces on top of those four. Can you trick everyone else into providing you with the best moves? The game continues until the last piece of the pyramid is placed. Then, start counting up the corners. - Whoever is occupying the most corners wins the game!
